A neutral office composes this wonderful office design. Blacks, whites and beige set the tone for a light, bright, and airy home office perfect for those who work for home or those who just need space to study. A custom built in serves the purpose for both function with an abundance of storage on top and below but also is aesthetically pleasing. Inspirational quotes line the walls and fill in the built in for added decor. A pop of green and the area rug from Urban Outfitters gives this space the modern bohemian vibe.

A coastal color palette of aqua, cobalt, and coral was the starting point for the design of this island getaway. An abundance of creamy whites and soft greys calm the palette and give a sense of airiness and serenity. Coastal motifs infuse the home with a beach-vibe and cheerful whimsy! The original layout was maintained, with the addition of a kitchen bar counter, and a built-in window seat in the guest bedroom. All surfaces, fixtures and finishes were replaced with new selections. Solid wood plantation shutters were added for a clean, classic look. New flooring included custom reclaimed teak wood floors with a driftwood finish and varying plank widths, stone-look porcelain tiles, and pebble stone in the showers for a spa-like feel. Caesarstone countertops were a beautiful and practical choice. The custom herringbone kitchen backplash pattern is repeated in the nook chairs. Plumbing fixtures by Kohler include a classic bridge kitchen faucet, body sprays and rain shower heads. New appliances by Wolf, GE Monogram and Miele make the kitchen “chef-worthy.” Unexpected textures and shapes are found in the urchin-like foyer wall sconce, barnacle mirror and antique tin & glass bead pendants in the powder bath, oyster shell dining chandelier, and marble pendants over the kitchen bar. Textural elements were integrated through grasscloth wallcoverings and tongue-and-groove paneling accents. Special cabinet hardware adds character to each room, and closet systems were installed to enhance the functionality of the home and to keep things organized. This townhouse is truly a restful retreat, abounding with luxurious amenities and all of the comforts one could desire.

The breathtaking ocean views influenced the dramatic redesign of this water-front Poipu condo. The outdated condo was completely remodeled to allow full appreciation of the surrounding views, bring in a fresh new color palette, and modernize and update everything from the electrical wiring to the new luxury bath towels. The clients wanted the condo to feel “fun, happy, and cheerful,” and to stand apart from the typical vacation rental on Kauai. They wanted to turn this condo into the ultimate “beach house” that felt just as luxurious as the gorgeous natural surroundings. Fresh white ship-lap walls set the backdrop for this modern beach style, which is further enhanced with bold stripes, natural textures, and ocean-themed decor. The palette of cobalt, aqua and lichen green is fresh and vibrant against the neutral backdrop. Trina Turk’s “Peacock Print” was the inspiration fabric for the living and dining room. The print is so lively, colorful, and modern, and was the perfect place to start. Every custom detail was thoughtfully chosen to bring a sense of luxury and originality to the space. While some elements are whimsical, such as the playful octopus art & fish-themed fabric, other elements are sophisticated and classic, to help keep the design grounded. Special features include a custom-made “Moroccan Fish Scale” tile backsplash in the kitchen, crushed marble counter tops with oyster shells and float glass, and blue glass pendant lights, reminiscent of water bubbles.
